Abstract

Pro-drugs of potent 5-lipoxygenase inhibiting compounds comprise compounds of the formula ##STR1## in which A is an alkylene or alkenylene group, X is oxygen, sulfur, sulfoxyl, or substituted nitrogen, and Y is a group which includes substituted or unsubstituted carbocyclic or substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic aryl. R.sup.1 is an alkyl, alkenyl, amino, alkylamino, dialkylamino, or hydroxyamino group or an amine group bearing a metabolically cleavable leaving group. M is hydrogen, a pharmaceutically acceptable cation or a metabolically cleavable leaving group, with the proviso that either M or R.sup.1 must bear a metabolically cleavable leaving group.
